DELIBERATION ITEMS
D. 1 1:00 P.M.
CONTINUED HEARING on an appeal jointly filed by Quail Hill Homeowners Assoc. and El Sobrante Valley Planning &
Zoning Committee of a County Planning Commission decision to approve the Sikh Temple expansion project located at 3550
Hillcrest Road in the El Sobrante area with variances to height and number of stories on phases 1 & 4 and variances to
retaining wall and masonry wall height with a tree permit. Project site is located at 3550 Hillcrest Road in the El Sobrante
area. (J. P. Singh, Applicant; Sikh Center of San Francisco, Owner) (Aruna Bhat, Conservation and Development).
Aruna Bhat, Conservation and Development Department, presented the staff report.
Supervisor Uilkema asked how the number of vehicle parking spaces was calculated.
Ms. Bhat clarified that the number projected was in direct relation to the uses and scheduled activities of each building
and noted that the Condition of Approval No. 14 definitively states that there is no concurrent scheduling of events
allowed.
Supervisor Uilkema asked about vehicle parking on the side of the road leading to the site. John Oborne, Conservation
and Development Department, clarified that in discussion with the local fire district, there would be no parking
curbside, the curbs would be painted red (no parking zone), and that the fire district would not give its approval for the
construction to begin without that condition being met.
Mr. Oborne further clarified that additional building space did not correlate to greater numbers of people because those
already on the site for worship would be filtering into the other spaces, utilizing more space for activities that were
already occurring on the site, rather than additional persons (additional vehicles) arriving.
Supervisor Piepho noted concern about wildlife being injured on fencing with points on the top. Mr. Oborne said that
issue has been addressed; there will be a piece of material affixed on top of the fencing to cover the sharp points and
create a flatter and safer surface to prevent injury to deer.
Chair Bonilla called for comment. The following people spoke in favor of approval of the proposed construction:
Minutes
Randall Henderson, Quail Hill Homeowners Association (appellent); Gurbachan Singh, resident of El Sobrante;
SurinderJeet S. Bajwa, resident of Pleasant Hill; Mohinder S. Datta, resident of Moraga; J.P. Singh, resident of
Richmond; Harpreet Singh, resident of El Sobrante; Tanisha Sandhu, Marcello, resident of El Sobrante; Ravinder S.
Batth, resident of Oakley; Amrik Singh Pannu, resident of Hercules; Ravinder Singh Randhawq, resident of Rodeo; Dr.
Jaideep Singh, resident of Oakland; Kavneet Singh, SALDEF; Maria C. Mauri, resident of El Sobrante; Ken Jamison,
resident of El Sobrante.
J. David Dacus, R.A. did not wish to speak but left written comments.
Ruby Molinari, El Sobrante Planning & Zoning Advisory Committee; Barbara Pendergrass, El Sobrante Planning &
Zoning Advisory Committee.
Gloria J. Sandoval, resident of Richmond, did not wish to speak but left written comments.
Chair Bonilla returned the matter to the Board.
Darwin Myers, County geologist, addressed concerns about the history of landslides in the area, noting that many of the
older developments that had experienced problems were constructed in a time when there was much less attention paid
to land conditions. He said that in this case, there was a substantial amount of information on the geology of the site
confirmed by subsurface exploration and the data gathered indicated the projects were feasible. In addition, there would
be further exploration and engineering evaluation and the work would be done under grading permits and building
permits.
Chair Bonilla inquired about how the vehicle trip calculation was derived.
Monish Sen, Public Works Engineering Services, clarified that a vehicle trip is a calculation of the number of vehicles
that expected to enter the site at peak hours.
Ms. Bhat noted that conditions of approval were included to control the number of events per year and numbers of days
in length (one) for activities, noise concerns, as well as traffic and parking plans for events that would attract more than
the usual number of visitors.
Supervisor Uilkema inquired about the possibility of renting of meeting space to outside organizations.
The applicant stated that it is not their policy now or in the future to lease or loan space for any type of meeting not
connected to the Center’s congregation.
Supervisor Gioia said he did not feel a focused environmental impact report would provide additional meaningful
information to make a decision. In regard to the parking situation the actual experience of the visitor flow at the site
was accommodated by the currently existing 115 spaces and the 70% increase slated in Phase I to bring the total
number to 195 was sufficient. He observed that the childcare center, which is limited to occupancy of 24 children, would
not increase the number of vehicles on Sunday as the children would be arriving with their families the same as before.
He said that the childcare slots provided during the week would assist with the problem of a lack of child care in the
County and should be encouraged. The Condition of Approvals contain a restriction against the operation of a private
school.
Supervisor Gioia expressed a desire for a mechanism of review (check in process) after Phase I of the construction for
review of whether calculations made in regard to such factors as parking capacity and traffic were still plausible and to
gather input from the community. He further requested that staff provide a condition to address concerns of liability
should a landslide occur impacting the downhill neighbors of the property.
Catherine Kutsuris, Director of Conservation and Development Department, agreed that a Condition of Approval
should be added to clearly specify that the roadway remain unobstructed and properly designated in accordance with the
fire district’s guidelines. She said the Condition of Approval regarding the fencing could be amended to include the
perimeter sections and specify a time frame for completion.
Supervisor Gioia requested staff review the condition regarding notification to the neighboring area of special events to
be held at the Center and ensure that notification included the local advisory council.
